“The scandal at the Veterans Administration hospitals may be even worse than we thought. The VA admits that 23 patients died at VA hospitals because of delayed treatment. But this morning the Dayton Daily News reports that since 2001, the agency has paid out $36.4 million to settle claims of ‘delay in treatment.’ The money was paid out either voluntarily or as part of a court action,” Schieffer said during the show.

Sweigart later was interviewed for appearances scheduled to air at 6:30 p.m. Sunday and 7 a.m. Monday on CBS News. The story also appeared in different forms in a variety of online publications around the country.

The Dayton VA in 2009 paid out $140,000 for a 2006 claim that was described as “Failure/ Delay in Admission to Hospital or Institution; Medication Administered via Wrong Route; Failure to Order Appropriate Test.”
